Abstract: The device for altering a control programme in a processor (1) is of the type in which the processor executes a control programme stored in a permanent memory (2) and has access to a number of altering routines (221 to 22M). Each routine is designed to be executed in the place of a train of at least one instruction of the control programme. The device includes a store for a number of rerouting addresses, each associated with the address of one of the altering routines. A comparator (31) for checks the address of the control programme contained in the computer programme (32) with the rerouting addresses contained in the memory. The control programme is re-routed in the case of positive comparison by the comparator (31), towards the altering routine whose address is associated with the altering address having made it the object of the positive comparison. Each altering address is also associated with one of the possible operating states of the processor. The device also includes an address selector from a pre-determined number of altering addresses, among those stored in the memory (40), so that the altering addresses selected are those associated with the current operating state of the processor. The address contained in the computer programme is uniquely compared with the selected altering addresses.

Abstract: A problem-solving technique involves the formulation of Constraint Satisfaction
Problems (CSPs) in terms of variables at different levels in a hierarchy and in terms of
constraints holding on respective variables at different levels in the hierarchy. Typically, a
variable at a lower level in the hierarchy is a component of a variable at the next higher
level in the hierarchy. For example, in the case of a simple geometrical problem involving
the finding of rectangles which do not overlap, the lower-level variable is a point whereas
the higher-level variable is a rectangle, which is defined by the points corresponding to its
vertices. In this example, some constraints hold on points only whereas other constraints
hold on rectangles only. Moreover, some constraints can hold on variables at different
levels in the hierarchy. Formulation of CSPs in this way exploits the natural structure
existing in problems in numerous domains and thereby reduces the time taken for the
resolution of the problem to be calculated.

Abstract: A substantially continuous method for forming a structural panel (2) of indefinite length. The method comprises the steps of preparing a settable mixture, conveying the mixture in a flowable state to a load chamber (6), and progressively forcing the mixture from the load chamber (6) through an inlet (15) toward an outlet (16) of an open ended mould chamber (17) by compression means at least partially curing the mixture within the mould chamber (17), resisting movement of the mixture through the mould chamber (17) until a predetermined consolidation pressure or density within the mould chamber (17) is achieved, subsequently allowing movement of the mixture through the mould chamber (17) in response to further mixture being first forced through the inlet (15) by the compression means, allowing the mixture to cure, and thereby progressively forming a structural panel of substantially indefinite length.

Abstract: The invention relates to a suit for problems associated with orthostasis which is comprised of a pair of trousers made of a slightly stretchable textile material. A plurality of essentially linear or wavy strips (14, 15) are inserted along the entire length of the trousers. Said strips are made of double-walled, liquid-tight, slightly stretchable textile material. The two layers of this material are connected to one another at connection points. This results in the production of cavities which are filled with a liquid. Suspenders (11) hold the trousers and are simultaneously constructed as reservoirs (12) for the liquid. In order to increase the pressure on the abdominal region, a flat bladder (13) can be placed in the trousers and, like the strips (14, 15), can be supplied with fluid from the reservoirs (12). As a result, liquid columns are produced which extend over a large portion of the body height. Said columns build up a compensating pressure on the legs and the lower abdomen. The trousers are closed by two lateral zip fasteners (21). The knees and genital region are covered by elastic inserts (16, 17). The strips (14, 15) are either essentially straight or wavy on both sides.
